38.MD.3 apply the area and perimeter formulas for rectangles in real world and mathematical problems (e.g., find the width of a rectangular room
given the area of the flooring and the length, by viewing the area formula as a multiplication equation with an unknown factor)
39.MD.4 make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8) Solve problems involving addition and subtraction
of fractions by using information presented in line plots (e.g., from a line plot find and interpret the difference in length between the longest and
shortest specimens in an insect collection)
1. Would you use area (A) or perimeter (P)? (Circle your answer.)

P = 14 x 11
P = 14 + 11
P = (2 x 14) + (2 x 11)
P = (2 x 14) x (2 x 11)

14. Cameron read that a rectangular dog pen needs to have an area of at least 36 square
yards to allow room for the dog to run. He says he cant buy the chain link fencing until he
decides what length to make each side of the pen. Jacob says it doesnt matter what size
he makes the sides of his dog pen, he will need the same amount of fencing because he
knows the area is 36 square yards. Who is correct? ___________
Draw diagrams and explain your answer.

No, one quart of paint will not be enough. Answers will vary but should include the information that 9 x 13 = 117
square feet, and a quart of paint will only cover 100 square feet.
14.
Cameron is correct. Students need to explain that rectangles with different perimeters can have the same area. They
can draw examples of rectangles that are 2 x 18, 4 x 9, or 6 x 6. Each has an area of 36 square yards. The first has a
perimeter of 40 yards, the second a perimeter of 26 yards, and the third a perimeter of 24 yards.
